A Heart Don't Forget

It was Labour Day weekend, I was seventeen.I bought a Coke and some gasoline,And I drove out to the County Fair,When I saw her for the first time,She was standing there in the ticket lineAnd it all started right then and there

Oh a sailor's sky made a perfect sunset,And that's a day I'll never forget.

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt,And she was killin' me in that miniskirt.Skippin' rocks on the river by the railroad tracks.She had a suntan line and red lipstick.I worked so hard for that first kiss,And a heart don't forget, something like that.

It was five years later, on a southbound plane.I was headin' down to New Orleans,To meet some friends of mine for Mardi Gras,When I heard a voice from the past,Comin' from a few rows back.And when I lookedI couldn't believe just what I sawShe said "I bet you don't remember me",And I said "only every other memory".

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt,And you were killin' me in that miniskirt.Skippin' rocks on the river by the railroad tracks.You had a suntan line and red lipstick;I worked so hard for that first kiss.And a heart don't forget something like that.

Like an old photograph,Time can make a feeling fade...But the memory of the first love,Never fades away

I had a barbecue stain on my white tee shirtShe was killin' me in that miniskirtSkippin' rocks on the river by the railroad tracksShe had a suntan line and red lipstickI worked so hard for that first kissAnd a heart don't forget, no a heart don't forgetI said a heart don't forget something like that
